Almost a month after the launch of the Ranger’s operation in Karachi, one of the most dangerous and violence-prone areas in the city became a battlefield all over again. The five-day operation, which took place late October, highlighted the power struggle between gang leaders Uzair Baloch and Baba Ladla, who were not so long ago hand in glove with each other.

The operation resulted in the deaths of 12 people and dozens more were injured. The area was completely paralysed as schools and colleges were closed and people could not even go for their jobs. The clean-up operation also exposed the astounding number of arms in Lyari and raised serious questions about the prospects for peace in Karachi.

I frequently attend the Supreme Court’s proceedings on Karachi’s law and order situation. On a recent visit, I was surprised at how the bureaucrats and officials were misguiding the court. When the Chief Justice asked about the situation in Lyari, he was informed that it was a fight between the two groups and the situation was now under control with no neighbourhood marked as a “No Go Area.” But I knew that even the Advocate General, who was making this claim, cannot visit certain parts of Lyari without police and Rangers’ escort.

One also wonders why the police and Rangers failed to capture Baba Ladla and Uzair Baloch. Ladla’s house was raided during the operation and many of his gang members were killed in the operation, but he is still at large. A few rival gangsters such as Shiraz Comrade were nabbed by the police earlier this year, but major powerplayers such as Uzair Baloch seem untouchable. Some people in Lyari feared that this battle may never end because elements within the police and intelligence agencies do not want peace and normalcy restored in the area.

Chief Justice Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry, who has been hearing this case since 2011, was surprised upon learning from customs officials that although they are aware that most weapons enter Karachi through land, as opposed to sea, routes, they have not yet intercepted any of these illegal channels.

He was also not fully informed that the Lyari gang war is closely linked with the drug trade and the massive sums of money required to purchase arms come from it.

Arrests of over 5,000 alleged criminals may not bring peace to Karachi unless the accused are prosecuted.
“The Lyari Gang War is a multi-million dollar business that has its patrons in the international underworld and thus it may never end,” remarked a senior official, on condition of anonymity.
